Hi all,
"flite" is and old "text to speech" external.
I had made some updates which includes:
- single binary without dependencies.
- support for the 5 voices
- read from a text file
- threaded functions for "synthesis" and "read file"
There are amd64 builds for tests at
https://github.com/Lucarda/pd-flite/releases
click on "Assets" and get the version for your OS.
Let me know if this is good enough for a Deken release or whatever.
Lucarda.

hi
i'd like to announce the release of deken-v0.9.2
https://github.com/pure-data/deken/releases/v0.9.2
the GUI-plugin can be installed via deken.
just go to "Help -> Find externals" and enter
"deken-plugin" as the search string.
this is the first bugfix release of deken-v0.9, which solves an
important regression (aka: crash) on some older versions of Pd on macOS.
i hope this is now ready for inclusion in the next Pd release as the
standard "find externals" implementation.
in any case: please test!
changes since 0.9:
deken-plugin ("Find externals" within Pd)
=========================================
- fix crash on some macOS versions of Pd (basically reverting to the old
list view in selected cases)
- double-click on the "library" heading now will open/close all library
nodes
- double-click on any other heading (e.g. "version") will also re-sort
the libraries
- (single-click will only re-sort packages within each library node,
but leave the library-sorting itself intact)
deken-xtra-apt-plugin
=====================
- fix the deken-extension to also include packages installed via
`apt-get` (on Debian and derivatives)
deken cmdline (create and upload packages)
==========================================
- fix overriding of destination URL with `--destination`
- minor fixes in the GPG/SHA256 verification code
- make flags for enabling/disabling certain features consistent
- make wrapper script POSIX compliant
- fixes to help Debian packaging of the the cmdline tool
- update Docker image
- reduce size
- prepare Docker image for GPG signing
binaries and a Docker image for the cmdline tool are available from the
releases page.
happy patching

Hey, first update of ELSE and the tutorial in 2022 has been released. Total
number of objects is now 446, total number of examples in the tutorial is
now 464..
I never take this long but there are lots and lots of changes here. Many
breaking changes on one hand but on the other I'm finally moving on to a
next development phase of "Release Candidates" aiming towards more
stability. One big change was having flags come first as they always should
have.
Many many fixes and many new objects.
*Highlights:*
- [metronome]: this object was added in the last update, I made many
changes and included several new high level funciontanilities. Specially, I
Added support for quite crazier time signatures.
- [tabplayer~]: now can trigger start and stop playing at audio rate with
signal input with gates and impulses.
- new [score]/[score2] objects to write and play musical score sequences
with a friendly syntax with bars, time signatures and fractional note
durations
- [polymetro]/[polymetro~]: polymetric metronomes at control and audio
rates.
The Live Electronics Tutorial has also been updated, check detailed
changelog at: https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-rc1
I also added in the readme alternatives to cyclone in ELSE.
Find binaries for the main 64 bits systems in deken (Linux, Windows and
macOS intel/arm), more to come soon and extra binaries will be available
and found only in the release downloads from the repository.
Cheers
Hi
I added the current version of Pure Data to my personal package archive
(PPA), so that it is finally possible to get a recent version of Pd on
Ubuntu without compiling.
Kudos goes to IOhannes who maintains the puredata package on Debian and
who makes sure that the most recent release of Pd is available in the
backports repository. His work enabled me to just¹ get his package
sources and push them to my PPA.
I also rewrote the "How to install on Debian/Ubuntu" FAQ page on
puredata.into who was referring to the retired apt.puredata.info repo
and Pd-extended.
You find instructions on how to get the most recent version of Pd on
Debian and on Ubuntu here:

¹well, a little work was necessary...
Dear List,
Version 2.3 of the Click Tracker is out.
This version was generously supported by the Quatuor Bozzini
(https://www.quatuorbozzini.ca/), and reflects mainly improvements
gained from the perspective of the users.
The new features are divided into 3 categories:
Syntax features:
- added meters with mixed denominators
- added "x Y" command to repeat inputed events
- added fermatas
GUI features:
- new GUI layout
- removed "record" button
- added reset button for pickup bar
GUI features for the application and Max patch:
- added file drop to open a score
- change the window size to scale the contents
- added new control keys g l t u, also combined with shift for reset
As in the previous version, you can use in any of the following ways:
- as an android app (https://bit.ly/click-tracker-mob or
https://bit.ly/clicktracker-playstore)
- as a closed desktop app in windows (http://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3Win)
or apple (http://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3Apple)
Due to Apple's recent security settings, you'll need to allow the Pd and
other externals to run on your system.
WARNING: M1 users will need to run the program with Rosetta.
- as the traditional Pure Data patch (https://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3)
- as a Max/MSP patch in windows (http://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3MaxWin) or
apple (http://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3MaxApple)
For more information, refer to the Click Tracker's website at
http://j.mp/click-tracker.
You can also visit the Click Tracker on facebook -
http://j.mp/clicktrackerfb, or check out the click track library in

Hey all,
If anyone is anywhere near Margate (England, north-eastern tip of the south east peninsula) I will be exhibiting a quadrophonic interactive sound installation in the Margate School from the 18th to the 22nd of March.
This is an artist-in residence program, and there are three artists exhibiting on those dates - my sensor-driven Pd sound-artwork, a 3D CGI designer and another who works with light sculpture.
The Margate School is an art college housed in a very large (deserted by Woolworths) department store in Margate, England, which is also a great seaside resort. I am capturing sound clips from the building and creating a set of Pd patches that will intreract with the audience through infra-red sensors.
Please come if you are in the area.
Best wishes,Ed Kelly

Dear Pd community,
in July this year, we, The Center for Haptic Audio Interaction Research
(CHAIR for short), released a VST3i plug-in: EXC!TE SNARE DRUM. It's an
exciter-resonator physical modelling snare drum syth. The exciter can be
triggered via MIDI. The plug-in is a free download.
In the PRO version of the plug-in (20€), on top of the MIDI triggers
there is an audio sidechain which allows direct excitation of the
waveguide resonator.
Video here:
https://www.chair.audio/product/excte-snare-drum-pro/
The VST3/AU is built using Steinberg's VST3 SDK and libpd. Yes, the
audio synthesis is done in Pd.
We are quite happy with the overall performance and negligible CPU
overhead. We were able to run 70 instances of the plug-in before we
started to hear dropouts. Nobody needs 70 parallel snares :)
The core of the audio synthesis is open source, in fact you can open Pd,
search for "CHAIR" in Deken and get the example patches with the snare
drum sound.
There is also a paper about the algorithm: "Efficient Snare Drum Model
for Acoustic Interfaces with Piezoelectric Sensors"
A bit longer story of the plug-in development can be read in our journal
article: "EXC!TE SNARE DRUM — Making an Audio Plugin with Pure Data
inside" both are to be found here:
https://discourse.chair.audio/t/its-science-papers-about-our-work/44
We are thankful that we were able to build upon the work which has gone
into Pd (and libpd on top of that). If you have contributed Pd or libpd
in any form and would like to try the PRO version of the plug-in, please
send me a quick email.
Thank you Miller, Dan, IOhannes, Peter, Pierre, Christof, Antoine and
everyone else.

ELSE Beta 45 is out! It now includes 435 objects. Live Electronics Tutorial
was also updated, with 450 examples now! This needs Pd 0.52-0 so it works
100%, but you'll get most of it with 0.51-4! Nonetheless, get Pd 0.52-0,
now at test version 4, it's quite stable and almost ready to go.
I have 4 new objects, [tap], to tap for tempo, [midi.learn] to learn and
save a MIDI controller, but I'm really really proud of [metronome] and
[clock]! The [clock] object works as a main clock that keeps others in
sync, and the ones in sync can multiply/divide the clock tempo while
keeping in sync! The [metronome] object is a high level and powerful
metronome that deals with compound time signatures and also works as a main
clock that you can sync to other [clock] objects. The [metronome] can also
be used for a timeline like paradigm, and as a click tracker. I may work on
a higher level "click tracker" and "timeline" abstractions with this later
on. I also plan to use it as a basis for a score sequencer.
The [pattern] object, a rhythmic sequencer, can now output indexes instead
of bangs and you can use it to control a [sequencer] object with more
sophisticated rhythms!
Get it from deken or on github, where you can also see a detailed changelog
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta45 . Deken now
offers a single download for all systems as a way to save space on the
server. If you wish, get the binaries it just for your system on the
downloads in the github release.
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, see you in early 2022 with more updates,
when ELSE becomes 5 years old.
Cheers
Alex
Unfortunately, that build is showing up as "damaged" for my students on Mac
OS Mojave and Big Sur, only offering the option of moving it to the trash
(see the attached screenshot). Even the usual route of doing a
right-click/open on the app leads to the same message, and in the Mac OS
security preferences it never offers the option to approve opening the app.
I can get them to successfully launch it from the command line by having
them navigate to the pd binary in the app bundle though. Or of course, just
build from source themselves. Not sure how important this is to others but
I'm doing a lot of work with JACK in my classes and nearly all of my
students are on Mac OS.

Conflations: conversational idiom for the 21st century
www.conflations.com
Cyclone 0.6-0 is out! It needs at least Pd 0.52 (still at a test release, I
know), but you'll be just fine if you're still in Pd 0.51 Get it from here
or via deken.
https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases/tag/cyclone_0.6-0
-----------------------------------------------------
CHANGELOG:
-----------------------------------------------------
- [cyclone] (binary/lib) fixed checking minimum Pd version
- [buffer~] added support to .caf files (thanks to updates in soundfiler
for Pd 0.52-0)
- [comment] thanks to updates in Pd 0.52-0 we can now fully support
natively italic variants of DejaVu Sans Mono
- [record~]: fix arg loading (allowing $1)
- [play~]: fix arg loading (allowing $1)
- [wave~]: fix arg loading (allowing $1)
- [mtr]: fix recording bangs, anythings and lists that start with a symbol
(this object hasn't been updated to MAX 7 and we just realized that - it's
the only one in cyclone that got no updates at all, hopefully we'll get to
it)
- [seq]:
- Partially updated to MAX 7 (finally) added new 'clear'/addeventdelay
messages from MAX 7, but we haven't added the float argument to 'write'
message so it forces saving files with separate tracks.
- Fixed 'tick' message where the first message after 'start -1' wouldn't
count.
- 'read' message now warns when file is not found, same for file
argument.
- The "end of track" byte is now found and respected.
- Opening files while reading an old one now restart from the beginning.
- The 'print' message was fixed to show absolute time values like in MAX.
- Extra feature of the display/editor window via clicking was restored
back (it had been removed n the cyclone 0.3 experimental phase)
- Times in the edit window are now displayed in absolute as it's the
standard for 'print' in MAX and the text file (therefore it was considered
a bug).
- Improved the edit window behaviour, now clicking on the object raises
and focuses on the window if it's already opened. The contents are also
updated on the opened window when changed.
- Improved documentation significantly, added examples for all messages
and we also explain now how to save and load text files and its format.
Following over dozen of new releases in the past 2 months, in the spirit of
thanksgiving, L2Ork (http://l2ork.music.vt.edu) is pleased to announce
latest release of Pd-L2Ork (dated 2021-11-21) for Linux, OSX, and Windows,
featuring a number of bug-fixes and community requests, including:
*Proper array and scalar selection, moving, and drawing with an improved
cursor
*Curved patched cords are now a user setting in the GUI Preferences
(enabled by default)
*Ability to have objects with more than 1,024 characters (e.g. comments
that also support endlines)
*Fixed bugs in the helplink and pddplink objects
*Added ability for the maxlib/netserver to disconnect users (plus tons of
other improvements that have ensured the L2Ork Tweeter runs stably, such as
a non-blocking mode, and graceful handling of delayed packets)
*Reworked copy from external clipboard feature, now allowing for reliable
pasting of the pd patch script directly into a patch.
*Included L2Ork Tweeter version 0.62 with its server and server admin
documentation--community members can now host their own L2Ork Tweeter
servers! Added L2Ork Tweeter Teacher widget to allow for easier remote
administering of Tweeter in a classroom, and tons of other bug-fixes and
improvements.

https://21.piksel.no/2021/11/19/ephemereality-capture-glitching-photogramme…
Ephemer(e)ality Capture is a practice-based workshop in which
participants hack, disturb and glitched the parameters of
photogrammetry. Participants use free or open-source 3D scanning apps
and software (which they can access online) to scan reflective,
invisible, specular, refractive, or ‘ephemeral’ objects and materials
to create images that actively confuse the imaging algorithm.

Jeu Videa – Natacha Roussel/Amelie Dumont
12.30pm-2pm - online (BBB2)
https://21.piksel.no/2021/11/20/jeu-videa/
Exploring collectively, feminist and intersectional possibilities of
vide-a game by learning Godot Engine software. Since the episode of
“Gamergate” a few years ago, and partly thanks to the work of feminist
academics such as: Anita Sarkeesian (feminist frequency), among others,
we now have a better understanding of gender relations in video games.
So far there is still very few attempts to develop a video game format
that captures feminist and collaborative principles, by transforming
the modalities of video games.

Dear List,
Today the Click Tracker Library reaches 60 works, with Feldman's 2nd
String Quartet (yes, that one). Together it comprises almost 16h of
clicks, which could be turned into music by any interested musicians.
If there are any works you might need or want to add to this collection,
let me know.
All the details are in http://jmmmp.github.io/clicktracker/index-library
With best regards,

Hi,
here's a new bug fix release for [vstplugin~] - an external to load VST2
and VST3 plugins on all platforms:
Binaries can be found on Deken or here:
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/releases.
This release fixes a critical bug where [vstplugin~] would fix crash
when switching samplerate or blocksize while a plugin is loaded. Even
worse, Pd would also crash when loading a plugin with |[loadbang]| or as
a creation argument at samplerates other than 44.1 kHz.
Please upgrade!
Also always, please report any bugs at:
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/issues
Christof
Hi
The [command] external lets you execute commands from Pd. It is
available on Deken for the following platforms:
* Linux-amd64-32
* Linux-armv7-32
* Linux-i386-32
* Darwin-amd64-32
Not supported is Windows.

Hi,
I am happy to announce a new bug fix release for [vstplugin~] - a Pd
external for hosting VST2 and VST3 plugins on Windows, macOS and Linux.
It is available on Deken (search for "vstplugin~").
Here is the full change log: https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/releases
Please report any issues at https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/issues
Have fun!

Hey, it's been 2.5 months without an update, so we have some cool stuff
here that I've been teasing about! We have a new gaussian oscillator and
gaussian envelopes; Some filter tools that people really liked (conversion
from biquad coefficients to poles and zeros, a z-plane plot GUI); and my
favorite: [pimpmul~], a phase multiplier/divider that also sends impulses
(game changer for me). Of course there's more.
My Live Electronics Tutorial had also some important revisions and new
additions to reflect the new objects and there's also a pretty cool example
that shows how moving average filters work. Details and downloads are here:
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta43 But get it also
directly from Pd itself. Total number of objects is now 431, total number
of examples in the tutorial is now 440! I need to thank my buddy Matt Barber
again with his great help teaching me about the math behind the gaussian
function <3 Cheers
Cyclone 0.5-6 needs at least Pd 0.51-3.
This release we're still dealing and fixing issues with capital letter
aliases. We brought this back on cyclone 0.5-0 but we're still struggling
with it and it's kinda embarrassing. We seem to have finally got it right.
Please test it so we can put this behind. This is for backwards
compatibility as since cyclone 0.3 the idea is to just use the objects with
lower case characters. The objects we're talking about are cyclone/append
(*); bucket; cyclone/clip (*); decode; histo; mousestate; peak;
cyclone/table (*); togedge; trough; uzi; cyclone/clip~ (*); cyclone/line~
(*); scope~; cyclone/snapshot~ (*)
(*) these classes need the 'cyclone/' prefix to avoid name clashes with
vanilla internals
Another highlight is that [grab] now has been expanded to also grab from
receive names in GUIs! Thanks to the amazing work by Matt Barber.
There are other fixes and improvements, check this link for a detailed
changelog => https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases/tag/cyclone_0.5-6
Get it also from deken.
Cheers!

Changelog
bug fixes
* VST3: fix silent multibus output (when using automatic channel
distribution)
* Linux: fix crash when opening the editor in a sandboxed/bridged
Linux plugin
* macOS: don't filter by empty extension when looking for binaries in
plugin bundles (a few plugins use extensions like .bin)
improvements
* Linux: suppress stdout/stderr when checking the `wine` command and
the wine host processes
* VST3: disable unneeded auxiliary busses, but still enable all main
busses (otherwise some plugins would crash)
* bridge: redirect logging output from subprocess to parent process
(useful for debugging purposes!)
Hello, as previously announced many times, we have an edition of the Vortex
Music Journal dedicated to Pure Data whose deadline is June 1st 2021!
Please share this around so it reaches people that might contribute!
2021 is the year Pd becomes 25 years old, hence the theme: “A quarter of
century of Pd: past, present and future”. So we're especially looking for
works that present a dialogue with Pd's history and also look ahead. Novel
works that contribute to Pd naturally do that, of course. And by "Pd",
clearly we mean all that is related and based on Pd, like forks, like works
that rely on libpd, etc... Note that artistic works are also highly
welcome, in the same way especially those that involve something "new".
for more details, see: http://vortex.unespar.edu.br/call_v9_n2a.pdf

I'm happy to announce the final release of [vstplugin~] v0.5.0 - a Pd
external to load VST plugins on Windows, macOS and Linux!
Binaries are available on Deken or can be downloaded here:
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/releases
If possible, please report any issues at
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/issues.
Big thanks to all my beta testers!

Dear List,
You can now get the click track of your favorite piece online! (or almost)
The Click Trackerwebsite hosts now an open library with tracks sent by
its users.
The selection is small, but hopefully will grow with time. You can find
pieces by Carola Bauckholt, Christian Winther Christensen, Bernhard
Lang, Mesias Maiguashca, Enno Poppe, Niklas Seidl, Simon Steen-Andersen,
Øyvind Torvundand a couple others. These can be downloaded as a Click
Tracker file, or mp3.
All the details in http://jmmmp.github.io/clicktracker/index-library
If you have any click track to be posted, let me know.
Best,
João Pais

Hi there, the highlight in this update is that I'm finally releasing my
preset management system for Pd as part of the ELSE library, it's called
[presets].
It is an abstraction based on [savestate], [text] and [else/retrieve]. It
communicates to receive symbols to get information from what's connected to
them and also send the information.
It has morphing and interpolation features and can also work with
abstractions.
I still have other ideas in my head, maybe even as a different/second
object. Let's see, anyway, just note this object is still experimental,
beware, things might change...
I also wanna test it more thoroughly as it might have some bugs. Please
tell me what you think of it and if you have some ideas on what else it
could do, or maybe do something it does differently. But I'm really proud
of what I designed here. It feels powerful and easy to use.
I'm releasing many updates frequently, you may want to check the last
releases too for the changelog. See
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/ for all releases,
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta41 for the current
release.
You can get the latest release directly from 'deken'

Dear all,
As part of the Deep learning with Audio course, we integrated AI-Duet, DDSP, NSynth, GANSynth, SampleRNN models and GANSpaceSynth hybrid architecture in Pure Data. Here it is the link to the course materials with Pd templates and further setup instructions;
https://github.com/SopiMlab/DeepLearningWithAudio
We have also developed the pyext external to support Python 3, currently we have instructions for building and installing the SOPI fork of pyext for macOS and linux only. Windows has been problematic when we tried to build pyext, contributions are welcome with building for windows instructions!
Here it is the link to the SOPI fork of pyext.

Hi,
here is a pre-release for vstplugin~ v0.5 - a Pd external to run VST2
and VST3 plugins.
You can find it on Deken or download it here:
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/releases/v0.5-test1
---
The most important changes:
* VST3: support multiple input/output busses ("-i" and "-o" creation
argument flags) + new methods for obtaining bus info
* VST3: fixed possible wrong channel count (regression introduced in v0.4)
* Linux: allow to run 32-bit and 64-bit Windows plugins (via Wine)
* Linux: fix non-functional VST3 editor
* some thread-safety improvements which fix occasional crashes with NI
plugins (and possibly others)
The full changelog is here:
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/releases/v0.5-test1
---
Beside trying out the new features, it would be very appreciated if you
could test it with your existing projects and check if nothing is broken.
If you find any issues, please file a bug report here:
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/issues
Have fun!
Christof
Hey there, I'm glad to announce this :)
Get this new version from github and also via Pd! Note we have a new
package where more than one architecture is now part of the same download,
please test these and tell me if it's all working.
Highlights: I got a cool multi slider GUI abstraction (multi.vsl) that I'm
proud of. It has things I missed from other options out there. I'm yet
to mimic a properties windows for all my GUI abstractions, I'm just lazy...
I'm holding for the next release a preset management system, but I do have
new objects here that I'll use there: [morph] and [interpolate] - to morph
and interpolate between presets. Check them out as they might be useful
outside the preset manager ;) I also have a new [power~] object, a
waveshaper, with an included example in my tutorial about it (see chapter
20).
Anyway, this is my first release to reach and exceed the mark of 400
externals, I now got 410 objects. I thought I'd be stretching it and
reaching my limit when I got to 400, that's clearly not the case. The thing
is that when I'm including so many new objects all the time, it's hard for
me to move out of a beta phase. And yes, I'm still breaking compatibility
:/ For breaking changes, more new objects, improvements and fixes, check
the full changelog here:
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta38
cheers
ps. wait a couple of days for ELSE-camomile to appear on the radar as well
;)
Dear all,
I would like to announce the release of *piro*[1].
Piro is a Pd-port of an impulse-response measurement object and a zero
latency convolver from the HISSTools Impulse Response Toolbox (HIRT).
Moreover in the package it is included a general-purpose object that
contains several utilities for managing IRs; this is still in progress.
Source code and binary for major architectures are provided.
For any questions about the Pd version of these objects please do not
hesitate to contact me.
Moreover in the readme there is a link for the original project, where you
can find an article that describes the original package and its utilities.
Finally I would like to thank Lucas Cordiviola and Giuseppe Silvi for their
patience with this project.
Best,
Marco

Hi folks !
I'd like to introduce this group to ossia score, a sequencer which embeds
PureData through libpd since its latest alpha versions, in order to easily
allow to score Pd patches (among many other things) in an interactive
time-line.
It is a preview feature - thus I'd like to ask this group if anyone wants
to beta-test it and help report bugs / inconsistencies / any kind of issues
with the way Pd is integrated in ossia score ?
Here is a small video of how it looks:
https://vimeo.com/529042247
And a link towards the Pd integration documentation:
https://ossia.io/score-docs/docs/advanced/puredata.html
ossia score can be downloaded here:
https://ossia.io/score/download.html
Please share around (& report any issues) - but most importantly hopefully
you'll have fun while trying it :-)
Kind regards,
